Bad people are less a problem than indifferent people.

Summary

This quote suggests that indifference is a greater issue than the presence of bad people. It implies that apathy towards injustice or unethical behavior is a bigger obstacle in society. While bad people can cause harm, it is the indifferent individuals who stand by and allow it to happen without any concern or action. This highlights the importance of fostering empathy and encouraging people to stand up against wrongdoing, as it is indifference that allows for the perpetuation of injustice.
